Thinkwell Group announced the appointment of Tyler Thornberg to Director of Business Development. Thornberg will focus on growing the agency’s experiential marketing clientele while maintaining a strong foothold in the exhibit, attraction and theme park industries.

“Tyler is a proven leader in the event production marketplace,” said Thinkwell Senior Vice President of Global Business Development, Kelly Ryner. “Coupling that production experience with his entrepreneurial spirit and strategic thinking makes him a perfect fit for Thinkwell.”

Thornberg has more than fourteen years of experience in the event production and film/television industries; where he has held roles as producer and production manager. Prior to Thinkwell, Thornberg was most recently a Producer at Global Experience Specialists (GES), where he worked on a variety of touring exhibits, including Harry Potter: The Exhibition. Additionally, Thornberg has seven years of experience in film and television production, where he worked for high-profile clients, such as Universal, Dreamworks, Columbia Tri-Star, Turner Broadcasting, MTV Networks, ABC and CBS.

This announcement comes following Lionsgate’s statement last Friday that it will launch a U.S. tour of The Hunger Games: The Exhibition and bring Jenefer Brown, a Thinkwell Director of Business Development, in-house, naming her to the newly created position of Senior Vice President, Branded Attractions. Lionsgate is partnering with Thinkwell Group for the traveling exhibit set to open in the summer of 2015, as the studio explores additional opportunities for the brand. “Thinkwell...is spearheading the initiative for line extensions of The Hunger Games and all of our other brands,” said Lionsgate CEO Jon Feltheimer.
